This spotless leather covered Bradberry pot arrived today...my first pipe purchase in a long time. The stem was completely plugged though (varnish? glue?) and while trying to clear it, a large chuck chunk broke off the stem. Now I've got to try to find a replacement. Sigh. This pic doesn't do the pipe justice.
